Frank Greco
Executive Chef, George Martin Group of Restaurants
As the executive chef of the renowned George Martin Group since 1989, Frank believes in using the highest quality and freshest products available and forges relationships with local growers. Although cooking is by nature a means of transforming the ingredients, Frank prefers to keep things uncomplicated and simply enhance their true characteristics. In his approach to the Grillfire restaurants, Frank brings the elements of upscale food into a more casual environment. In entering the Baltimore area, he “could not ignore the local passion for crab,” embellishing the prime-aged filet mignon with a fresh crabmeat crust; creating a crab and shrimp cocktail; and adding the local favorite, lump meat crabcakes, to the menu. “I look to classic preparations and try to give them a unique spin, yet maintain the value of familiarity. The true inspiration is to continually grow, learn, and share.”
